Barriers to Entry: Women in Leadership
Barb Monson is where Finance meets FUN!
A former CFO who supports leaders while they navigate today’s weird workplace, Barb loves to bring disruptive solutions to the table. There isn’t an excel spreadsheet big enough to capture all the moments someone said “You don’t act like other accountants.” She’s a strategist with the numbers, but her superpower is Bridging the Gap between different viewpoints. Hold on, though - she’s not just the “Switzerland” of the office, she brings out potential and creates solutions wherever she goes.
This talk will identify and discuss the specific challenges that women encounter when aspiring to or occupying leadership roles. Such as issues related to bias, stereotypes, work-life balance, and cultural expectations. But more importantly discuss strategies and initiatives that have proven effective in breaking down barriers and promoting gender equality in leadership.
